Hey guys,
Just curious what the value of one of these would be in this condition?
Need to get some second opinions on a sale...

Also for those who are unsure as to what it is;
It's an Australian Parachutist bayonet (or machete bayonet), they only made about 3500 of them and even less of the scabbard. They were intended as a dual use tool and started making them in 1944 but as far as I recall they never saw front line use as by time they got into the hands of the infantry the war was over.
The serial number range started at 3000 so this one fits with it's 4 digit number, it also has the broad arrow and the correct Slaz 43 grips.
